Orange

This is my first participation in this initiative of the WorldOfXpilar Community, where every week a new color is chosen, which must be present or predominate in our graphic composition. This time the color selected by @charter is orange.

A couple of years ago, while driving along an avenue in the north of my city, Barquisimeto, I noticed the installation of a new sculpture or statue in the surroundings of a square commonly known as Grandparents' Square (Plaza de los Abuelos), because there is a monument commemorating the elderly.

The sculpture represents a woman with a wide and long dress, typical of past times, black gloves, and covering her hair, what seems to be a cap or hat, however, I could not find any information about the author, the materials used in its elaboration, or even the name of the work.

The place selected for its installation is a large public space that serves as a sidewalk and is located in front of a residential complex with buildings of a few floors, which were also remodeled and painted, probably by the municipal authorities as part of the work of cleanliness and ornamentation that corresponds to them.

Naranja

Esta es mi primera participación en esta iniciativa de la Comunidad WorldOfXpilar, donde cada semana se escoge un nuevo color, el cual deberá estar presente o predominar en nuestra composición gráfica. En esta oportunidad el color seleccionado por @charter es el naranja.

Hace un par de años atrás, mientras manejaba por una avenida del norte de mi ciudad, Barquisimeto, pude observar la instalación de una nueva escultura o estatua en los alrededores de una plaza conocida comúnmente como Plaza de los Abuelos, por encontrarse un monumento conmemorativo a las personas mayores o de la tercera edad.

La escultura representa a una mujer con un vestido amplio y largo, propio de épocas pasadas, guantes negros, y cubriendo su cabello, lo que pareciera ser un gorro o sombrero, sin embargo, no pude encontrar información alguna sobre el autor, los materiales empleados en su elaboración, o incluso el nombre de la obra.

El lugar seleccionado para su instalación, es un amplio espacio público que sirve como acera y que se ubica al frente de un complejo residencial que cuenta con edificaciones de pocos pisos, los cuales también fueron remodelados y pintados, probablemente por las autoridades municipales dentro de las labores de aseo y ornato que le corresponden.
